Use Insect Dust to eliminate crawling insects around your home. Our diatomaceous earth comes in the form of a chalky powder, and is the natural fossilized remains of diatoms, a type of hard-shelled algae. Diatom particles are very small and sharp — but only harmful to the small exoskeletons of insects. Insects cannot become immune to its action, as it is a mechanical killer — not a chemical one. Because it is a light dust, diatomaceous earth easily clings to the bodies of insects as they crawl over it.
The tiny diatom particles then cut into the waxy coating of insects and they dry out and die of dehydration within 48 hours. Food-Grade Diatomaceous Earth is an all-natural product that is so safe it can be sprinkled around your vegetable patch, or rubbed right into your dog's fur. Lightly coat a thin layer in areas where insects are found or may hide, such as kitchen cupboards, behind and under appliances, baseboards or drain pipes.
For carpets, lightly sprinkle the Insect Dust over the carpet, and leave for days before vacuuming. You can leave the dust in place until you no longer see any signs of insects in that area, at which point you can clean it up.
Thoroughly dust floor, carpets and bedding in and around pet's sleeping areas, as well as surrounding baseboards, cracks and crevices. Safe to use around your pets - it can be rubbed right into your dog's fur.
Take apart bed and dust joints and channels. Dust any hollow tubing and the interior framework as well as the mattress and all cracks in the room. Use a turkey baster or duster to apply clouds of the dust over the affected area. Leave the dust for a few days. It is still safe to sleep in your bed even while the dust is present. Lightly dust in and around kitchen and bathroom plumbing, along baseboards and wherever else silverfish are found.
Lightly coat a thin layer of diatomaceous earth on areas where insects are found, such as patios, door frames, foundations, sewer pipes and drains.
Apply as a barrier around plants, trees and garden beds. For best results, reapply the Insect Dust after heavy rainfall. Thoroughly dust areas where flies frequent, such as livestock pens and kennels.
DE can also be added to the food of pets and livestock. The DE helps as a de-worming agent for livestock, and it ends up in their dung. Flies lay eggs on the dung which hatch into maggots, which are then killed by the DE. This is an effective method for fly control, especially on farms and homesteads, and in outdoor areas where animals are present.
